Description

For many mothers caught in the "Should I work or not while raising my family?" dilemma, one of the most critical considerations is: What kind of support will I get for the choice I make? The experts-sociologists, psychologists, and economists-agree the outstanding phenomenon of the past two decades is the millions of women (most of them mothers) who have entered the work force. The array of choices facing women today is exciting, but it is also unsettling-because society offers so little support for the choices they have to make. The purpose of "A Mother's Choice" is to help women evaluate all those options, to analyze their own situations, and to understand better how their decisions will affect not only their futures but those of their loved ones as well. - from Amzon
